            var b = 10;
            var c = "Test";
            var i = 0;
            var linebreak = "<br />";

            document.write("sum_i=0^100 = ");
            sum = 0;
            for ( i=0; i<=100; i++ ) {
                sum = sum + i;
            }
            document.write( sum );
            document.write(linebreak);
         //-->
      </script>
      
      Example of Javascript arithmetic.
